However I have updated already from
the one available in the forum.
and now when I go and check for the Software update, it says
"Your device's software is up to date."
Is it now possible in some way to update the Indian OTA my phone?
Also if someone can upload the the file for the Indian OTA?
Thanks :good:

For those who updated to kitkat by side loading ; How it's the update behaving ? Few folks have reported couple of issues with kit Kat. That was one of the reasons I waited for the official update
The current jelly bean stock is quite stable ; though the battery drain with dual Sim and 3g is slightly on the higher side

So far no issues. I'm not using 3g.
Using Only WiFi which works flawless... I don't miss anything from JB coz I used only for half day before kk update

No issues so far. Hope you guys got a similar update file from Motorola.

I have a EUR model so I will have to wait. But is the bug that the LG G3 had since the update to Lollipop solved? The bug where the screen goes on every 10 seconds after the battery is fully loaded using a wireless pad? Since the update to lollipop I cant use wireless charging anymore since this is a very anoying bug.

Wouldn't know. This is my first time on Lollipop.

I just updated my D855 SEA model with the latest OTA, did a fully wipe and started fresh. Charged it last night on the wireless charge pad and no such issue.

If this V20B SEA an older version than the current V20E?

I believe so, @twosix but the thing is, it doesn't have much bloat, IMHO.

My SEA/20b version has intermittent weirdness with wireless charging. It often wakes in the night to say its charging slowly. I'm using an LG WCP-700 charging pad.

Guys, for some reason I feel that 20b is better than 20e (had that before the official launch of lollipop for SEA).

after updating via pc suite and checking for another update, it shows two upgrades available with version that is still v20b.
can someone please let me know if they have successfully upgraded their phone with both upgrades?
thanks.

well that didnt go well, it was a two part update to 20b, after the first part installed it got stuck in a boot loop and then second part installed still in boot loop, after install finished it just kept boot looping, i had to put it in recovery mode and do a factory reset, that worked but it loaded up with 10k 4.4.2 kitkat, so pluged it back in and ive just updated back to 20b, think ill leave it there unless somebody wants to try it

in the box on the screen on the second update it was already showing 10 k 4.4.2, i can only think that the first part of the update rolled it back to kit kat

Reporting after update
Update sucks, a bit laggy, and usage bumped up from 14% to 20% in smart cleaning. And there's really no need for T-action, though quick remote did get its very much needed upgrade.
I think this has some added bloatware to it, guest mode is gone (i mean half-a$$ed), quick memo+ does not activate when pressing its icon from the integrated home button, but I did discover a way to use it.
First, open the quick memo icon (green), close it, then press the shortcut on the home tray, now it works!

does anyone of you know what's the difference between the brightness slider on notification widget having C on it and without C? I cannot understand what's the difference, it seems the same for me.

New firmware 32.1.A.1.185

Just got the update. Don't know yet what's new.

Nothing visible so far, maybe some optimization and fix for the screen bug.

Only difference I can spot is that the network type (H/4G/LTE etc.) is now placed on the left of the reception bar instead of above it.

That didn't change for me though. I'm on E5803 Malaysian firmware. All I noticed was that the animations are faster and the apps are opening faster. That's it. Also no issues with auto brightness so far

The default SMS app now has stickers(You actually have to download Sketch from the play store)
and there are some new quick share options at the popup menu that appears when you share a file.
Also, it says something about a revamped camera ui but I see nothing different....

Actually I had two updates. One in the morning - and FM radio worked.
Then another in the afternoon and FM radio broke again ...
Sorry for a bad news ...

I think with .185 update low light photos just got even worse in SA, instead of bluish tint now i got purple ones :S

I hope this fixes the wired and bluetooth audio stuttering.

In Lollipop you couldn't get system software updates OTA if you were rooted, but I just got a notification that this version is ready to install... I'm running rooted 32.1.A.1.163. Will I lose root if I install? Will it install at all? Thanks in advance if anyone knows.

If your bootloader is unlocked,then the only way to update, is to flash it via flashtool. OTA or PC Companion won't work

I tried updating with root and it failed. I also want to know if root is possible with thia update.

I'm using a rooted phone myself - while I use the DRM key emulation I know OTA updates will most likely fail so I will perform the upgrade manually.
Would anyone please check the Android security patch level?
If you go to System Settings - About phone. One entry says "Android security patch level" which is February 1st on the .163 version. Did this one increase maybe?
If so, it would be worth the hassle with Flashtool and rerooting and such for me to upgrade.

January 2, 2017 Software Update

This morning, my Note received a rather large software update that installed without many problems. Most likely certain security updates, but I was surprised to receive it as we are not really "accustomed" to any attention from Samsung for this tablet. Any further comments from anybody else?

I got the same.

Sorry for the misspelling. I meant to say "without any problems" not "without many problems". In fact, the whole update process was smooth and fast. Everything works fine. I understand, however, that everyone's setup is different and my experience should not be the absolute rule.

Nothing here on my device. Although it might be because I'm in Sweden.

Did anyone see any changes? I dont see/feel anything other than the version number change even the security patch level date remained the same. Is there a changelog somewhere

My tablet updated and now the OS boots super slow and then does a soft shutdown and reboots a second time. It takes more than 60 secs to get to the home screen. Anyone know how to uninstall this update?

I've seen this post for a few days but not had time to respond till now.
I've got an SM-P605v. Haven't seen, or been able to download the update you've mentioned. This may be because I don't use Verizon as my connectivity partner, or it may be that my particular tablet's OS doesn't need the security updates that yours did.

I also have a SM-P605V but have Verizon as my carrier. I got the notification to update today. I don't see anything on VZW site about it nor under the specific SKU on SamMobile (still has 10/15/15 as the last official update). When looking at the SM-P605 model, there are some in the list (even today's date), though they are for non-USA countries.
Even so, it looks like they are still all Android 5.1.1, so it's likely just some minor tweaks. To my understanding, you would need to pop in an activated Verizon SIM to get the update for your specific tablet, as Verizon is the one that issues it. You can also wait until it's posted on SamMobile and manually do it. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P605V/

You should be able to flash this now that Sammobile posted it... https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P605V/

I got this a couple of days ago - managed to odin flash after I put the wrong file and got the boot loader triangle a day before.
Its extremely stable and the tablets working like a dream - the only issue is no root.
Edit: I noticed a great improvement in battery management and it will charge to 100% from 30% in 4 hours before I flashed the 5.1.1 rom it took nearly 8 hours with a new(second hand) USB Flex connector and nearly 20 hours with the old usb flex connector to go from 30% to 100%.
I really like this tablet - it reminds me so much of my SM-N910F note 4.

You can root the latest firmware and also install twrp. I have a 600.

Probably just a security update

Please excuse my silly question but I have P600 with 5.1.1 and never rooted. Do I need to install twrp before I update or it doesn't matter? Updates always make me uneasy with locking bootloader or needing new root methods.

If you just want to update then flash with Odin and the appropriate file. Try looking at sammobile.com for the appropriate rom file.
If you want root then you will need to install a custom recovery using CF auto or Twerp - the latter will NOT work on the SM-605v version as the bootloader is locked and will result in the yellow triangle and stating that the tablet has a strange recovery and that you should see a verizon technician. By installing the recovery you can then update the system or even try out new roms created by the people of this wonderful community.
Rooting will potentially stop business application with built in security from working - i.e. HSBC application, Virgin Media app and Sky Movies apps will not work on rooted phones to name a few.

I updated and rooted and everything is working ok. I had trouble with 64gb Sandisk microsd with "sd card unexpectedly removed" error. Then it mount itself back. Sometime it shows empty and asks to format and sometime it works. Also the lockscreen flicker and that usually when the card error happened. I suspect they are related and it happens only when waking up the device. The card works fine with all my other devices including my note 4 on stock 5.1.1. I'm not sure what caused it because I just used this sd card with the note 10.1 and then updated and rooted all in the same day.
Anyway, I removed the Sandisk and now I'm using 32gb Samsung and it only happened once for maybe 12 hours (could have been 100 times with Sandisk). Also, I don't notice the lockscreen flickering anymore. I will see if this problem comes back or it just that Sandisk doesn't play well my note. I have seen many people here reported similar problem with other Samsung devices for too many reasons. I don't believe file format is the issue but I'm using exFAT.

AL00C00B213 Now available for Chinese version of Mate 9

Unlimited downloads now available for B213. It was restricted to first 2000 at one point. Just go to HiCare and then press update. Then follow directions. 751mb. Mostly security related update. Improves google app security. The only thing different I noticed in re user interface is that, when in recents page, the delete all running apps button no longer flickers when transitioning. A slight improvement as it was a little annoying to see the flicker. Maybe just my device...

Sorry it is not quite working out right for you. When I first got phone I downloaded the GMS app (from hiApp I believe) One thing I did notice, that I did not mention, is that Playstore crashed the first time I opened it after this update but then I tried it again and it worked fine. I have never had to reinstall google apps with any updates. I'm still not rooted which is unusual for me. I've decided to more or less ride out this device and not root unless, Xposed for Nougat comes out. I will probably part with it once the Note 8 comes out.

Mate 9 Pro just updated OTA to AL00C00B213 (741MB). Play store, Gmail, contacts & sync work fine afterwards. I only ran GMSinstaller once when I first got the phone. I expected to have to rerun and reinstall google stuff after each update but happily that hasn't been the case for me.
It's always applied Quick Update so maybe that's why?
I have not deleted HiCare & other Huawei apps & never registered a Huawei ID.
is it recommended registering HuaweiID?

dont think is needed or recommended but there is some options there that may be useful for end users, in my case I had always to reinstall and rerun GMS app probably because I always do the full install 1.5+ gb

battery consumption
Anybody noticing a greater power consumption from this latest update I no longer get the 2 day of moderate use out of a fully charged phone need to do it 24 hours now? hope they develop a fix quickly even sticking it in ultra battery mode seems to drain quicker than it did before.
Also when I check to see battery consumption, WLAN always seems to be on even when I'm not using it as their is always a blue line underneath?
